Monkeygirl,
A small number of smoker's experience mouth irritations when they cut down or quit smoking. The cause is related to chemical adjustments that are taking place in your mouth. For years your mouth has had to withstand repeated assaults with hot cigarette smoke. Your tissues are adjusting and healing.
Chewers need to pay special attention to mouth sores and blisters. One study estimates that more than 50% of regular smokeless tobacco users have at least a degree 1 early-stage leukoplakia (an abnormal condition in which thickened white patches of epithelium occur on the mucous membranes ) lesion. Another study of dental patients revealed that 78% of smokeless tobacco users had detectable oral lesions.
How long will this last? First few weeks after quitting.
Tips to help: Use topical treatment for mouth sores. If you experience sores for longer than a few weeks, consult your doctor. If you have a sever sore, consult your doctor or dentist immediately.

I am on day 12. Hooray! I feel much better, but the top of my mouth is just tore up. I don't know if it was the gum. I did not chew any yesterday and haven't today, or if it's one of those crazy withdrawal things. Any Ideas?
